Volunteer Spotlight: Paul Miller

Schurig Center for Brain Injury Recovery has been fortunate to have Paul Miller share his talent and enthusiasm for art as a weekly volunteer in our Art Studio for many years.

Paul was the Marin Independent Journal’s editorial cartoonist in the late 1960’s, later was the editorial and sports cartoonist for the Novato Advance for most of the 1970’s, has done cover cartoons for the Pacific Sun, and worked as a cartoonist illustrator for the Tiburon Ark. He has also had cartoons published in the San Francisco Chronicle as an “Image to the Editor” contributor.

A former Marine and a UCLA graduate, Paul taught a cartooning course in the College of Marin’s Art Department, where he was a full time faculty member in the English and Communications Departments for four decades.

Paul’s paintings and drawings can be found in private collections throughout the United States and abroad in France, London, and India.

The community at Schurig Center is deeply grateful for Paul’s dedication and contribution made over many years. He is a Marin Country treasure who has truly enriched the lives of many. Thank you, Paul!

Processing Emotions Through Art

June 2016

In the weeks after the shootings in Orlando, our Therapeutic Arts Program participants have been creating art to help process their emotions about the event as well as share loving kindness and support for all of the people whose lives have been affected by the shootings. The art that was created by this group is currently displayed at our center.

New Additions in the Garden

June 19, 2015

Our hand railing has gone from bare and grey to being covered in elaborate yarn designs, thanks to the handiwork and vision of one of our participants. The yarn has been carefully selected for its texture and color to accent the flowers and foliage of the garden. We have also watched on in anticipation as a new insect habitat has been erected. This project was inspired by similar habitats that our Marin Master Gardeners saw in England. We have been tossing around names for this new insect habitat, what do you think…Bug Hotel, Bug Hub, Habitat for Bug-manity?
